Criminal Justice Reform w/ Sunny Schwartz
Treasure Island, the artificial island built in 1936 and attached to Yerba Buena Island, is located between San Francisco and Oakland, is only accessible by car or bus from the San Francisco Bay Bridge. The island is currently under new development, to become primarily luxury housing, however the nonprofit “Five Keys” (a restorative justice program and charter school), is housing formerly incarcerated women on the island who served unusually cruel and unfair sentences for decades in prison. Through Five Keys these women are able to reenter society in a supported and gentle way. Sunny Schwartz, author, advocate, and changemaker speaks to us about this extraordinary program she founded over 30 years ago, and the island where it is possible. Meet Sunny Schwartz!
